The night skies above Petersfield in November 2024

Can you name a famous event that happened during the reign of King James the First? There is one event that everyone has heard of, and it happened in November. "Remember, remember, the 5th of November, gunpowder, treason, and plot!"  So why is Sky Watch concerned with the Gunpowder Plot? Thereby hangs a tale of 17th century intrigue with a connection to this show! Every month Shine Radio presents a Sky Watch of our unique dark skies. Sky Watch is written by Petersphere resident, astronomical expert and amateur astronomer Geoff Burt and voiced by Claire Vennis from under the dark skies of Langrish.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
